Abstract: We employed numerical simulation to investigate flow, heat transfer and entropy generation for liquid water flowing across staggered and inline arranged micro pin fins. Results show that the entropy generation of inline and staggered micro pin fins are approximate when Re≤50.However, the difference between flow entropy generation and heat transfer entropy generation gradually increases for 50

Key words: numerical simulation, flow, heat transfer, entropy generation, micro pin fins
